Messed up big time? Dan Henderson hits like a truck. Wanderlei Silva suffered a very similar ko at the hands of Dan too and he ko'd Fedor which many people consider the GOAT. (Not having a pop)

It's not an easy pick this one; I would say Bisping or maybe Dan Hardy, a good case can be made for both. Brad Pickett is a pretty decent shout as well. Now he's gone down another weight cat, he may even win the title and then it would be easy to choose.

Lol at the Hardy and Pearson shouts. Bisping and Pickett are the only ones who could put up a decent challenge to the guys at the top of their divisions. Hathaway hopefully will get there aswell. probably a couple im forgetting about at the moment.

He seems to choke against anybody towards the top 5 of his division. Plus do you have any idea how much shit us Brits got from the Americans after the Henderson fight lol. I really like Bisping but see him as a gatekeeper.

Pearson hasn't beaten a top 5 guy either. The only top 5 guy Pearson has fought is Swanson. Pearson put a decent fight up to his credit.

It's hard to rank Murray/Freeman but I do think they may both of been more naturally gifted than Bisping, just a shame they didn't come along 10 years later.

I don't see any of our current crop taking over Bisping either, although I'd give Manuwa the best chance. I rate Hathaway highly and he's young enough but I just dont see him ever improving to an elite level.

It's a shame, we've had so many naturally talented fighters (Freeman, Murray, Daley) and so many fighters who have the perfect mind set (Bisping, Hardy, Hathaway, Watson) but no one seems to tick both boxes to a high level yet. As I said. I'd say Manuwa might be our best chance but however good he gets, he could of always of been so much better if he got in to it at a younger age.

I think the guy to take over Bisping as the GOAT British fighter, isn't even known yet.
